Hi friends,
Last Monday, I sat in a drill hall at Anchorage’s Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in commemoration of Veterans Day. During the Fallen Soldier Ceremony, I reflected on the countless Alaskans who gave their lives in defense of our country and of the families that they left behind.
Gold Star families have already paid the highest price when their loved ones were killed while serving our country. Many rely on the survivor’s benefits to pay their bills and put food on the table. These payments are the least we can do for these families.
Unfortunately, politics have gotten in the way. [[link removed]]
When Don Young and his friends in Washington rushed to pass tax breaks for the wealthy, they carelessly made these survivor benefits subject to tax. Once the mistake was discovered, lawmakers did nothing to fix it.
I want to hear from you. Sign your name if you think this tax on Gold Star families should be repealed. [[link removed]]

It is important that we honor these families by not making careless mistakes like these. We deserve leaders who stand up for our veterans and service members.
Thank you,
Alyse Galvin
